Routing above FL410

Post by fish4life »

Good morning

I was curious about this today since I don’t fly corporate, if you get above 410 is is a lot easier to get direct routings and avoid the zig zag of the airways since you are above most of the traffic?

For sure. Mostly just with intermediate fixes, no direct the field or anything.

Biggest advantage is topping the weather on embedded days.

Crew above 450 have it the best.

Silver lining, we're only up there 100ish hours a year. Some less.
